Thanks for the replies, I find the front ball invaluable and have asked the service departments at 2 Nissan dealers who are quite emphatic it should not be done - but can't give a logical reason why....
Has anyone had the experience of fitting a towball on the front of their Patrol for easy manouvering a caravan into difficult places. (not used for driving on the road). I have fitted one and is...
I have now fitted the new thermostat and am happy to say the cooling system and the Rad1 & 2 fans are working ok. The best test will be when I go home (approx 1500km) towing the caravan going thru...
I haven't come across too many people who use a vacuum gauge. it really does give a reliable indication on the condition of the engine and how it is performing when towing. I have found 2400 rpm is...
Pearcey, Your response was the reason for my post on this subject, because I have often wondered when I am driving in 5th. whether I am putting too much load on the gear box. I recently had a new...
Bazz61, It sounds as though my driving when towing is very similar to yours. I tow in 5th. when I can. I have installed a vacuum gauge that I refer to all the time, and tells me when I should go down...
Thanks for the info. At my earliest opportunity I'll try your suggestion.
Thanks for coming back, I can compress the shocker, but when i try to withdraw the pin it fouls agains't the shocker mounting bracket

When towing a caravan (flat highway roads) is it better to drive in 5th. gear or 4th. gear. There is a general census of opinion it is better to drive in 4th. gear. The weight of the caravan is...
I have a '98 GUII, ST-4500 and have tried to remove the rear shockers with no success. The bottom pins supporting the shockers are assembled such that they cannot be withdrawn sufficiently to remove...
Hi, its Lloyro here, I have tried to replace my rear shock absorbers without success. The lower support pin on both sides are assembled such that they cannot be withdrawn sufficiently to remove the...
Hi Yendor, thanks for coming back; I have checked the system as per your suggestions and am happy to say the fans are now working ok. It is pretty obvious there must have been a bad contact somewhere...
The radiator was drained and back flushed but not rodded and appeared to have a good flow. However, I will fit a new thermostat to see if this resolves the problem, if that fails then I will have the...
Thanks Yendor - I didn't know that should happen and will check if one fan starts when air conditioner turns on. An electrical wiring diagram would be nice.
Thanks Yendor, have checked fuses inside vehicle and fuses and relays under the bonnet and are ok. I'll have to wait till engine is hot with A/c on to see if fans work then. On cold start up the...
Hi Tony, thanks for coming back. The two electric radiator fans in front of the radiator are designated as Rad1 and Rad2 on both the fuse panel and relay panel. I had presumed these were there to...
Thanks for the back-up, I have found there is either a temp. sensor or an o/load cut-out within the rad. 1 fan motor. I would have thought the sensor would be operating with a rise in water temp....
Hi, its Lloyro here; I have a problem with my Radiator fans 1 & 2 not turning on when engine starts to overheat. Presumably, the temp. sensor within the fan motor is open circuit. Has anyone had this...
Hi,
I'm Lloyro and a newby from Adelaide. Would like to be part of the chat forum.
Hi, I'm Lloyro and have a '98 Patrol GUII, 4500.
I am having problems with the Radiator Fans 1 & 2 not operating causing overheating problems. Has anyone any suggestions as to what the problem could...
